    I don't give a crap about She-Mac's importance of being on another squad for the playoffs. We own his ass.

    Morey is tighting the noose and waiting to see who gives first...TMAC will be traded, the cap space means to much for both clubs and REALLY big for the Knicks for nothing to happen.

    Less than 24 hours to go. I know we're its driving us crazy but ultimately it is up to morey and les, so the outcome may leave some of us dissapointed, but I'll be content with their decision. NY CHI, as long as the move allows us to keep our core, I'm all for it. I know I didn't have to post this but some of us are getting a little loopy and its making me think this deal will make or break you as a fan. GO ROCKETS!

    My buyout offer at this point would be 1 peso written from my checking account in Mexico City which I'd open up just for that.

    "buy out", why? If Tmac wants to pay back $10M or so, then everything is a possible.

    We have to buy him out (if we don't trade him, which I'm pretty certain we will), otherwise it makes us look bad.

    If Tmac stays, they better let him play... I'm so sick of this Adelman era.. i mean seriously, what the hell is so hard to understand about good leadership? Communicate.. call each other.. give each other back massages.. if need be, get each other off.. jeez, i don't care what it takes, but this childish nonsense needs to go.

    Why can't coaches leave aside egos for the betterment of the team?

    huh?

    If Tmac stays then I hope he does NOT play.

    And what saga have you been following where you think that hunk of meat deserves a 15th chance??

    Not at all shocked to hear Rockets are now promoting notion that they won't trade McGrady. Deadline is 3 p.m. Nothing is dead until then.

    NYK will fold.

    I'm telling you this is their only shot at getting anyone. ESPECIALLY if Amare goes to Cleveland. Both will resign, even if they fall short of a ring.

    Heat has the rights to Wade, and logically they will go After Bosh...Chris Bosh who would you rather play for? Miami and Wade or the Knicks and...and....

    Atlanta already has a good team, it's just are they willing to give Joe Johnson any money, that will be NYKs best shot...oh and Carlos Boozer...but only one of those guys...can on eof those guys dave their franchise?

    How will it be to tell your fans you waited all these years for Joe Johnson or Carlos Boozer? Should be fun...Knicks will fold, Morey will get what he wants or damm near close to it.

    Why?

    The ONLY reason to buy him out is if it saves us luxury tax (ie, TMac agrees to take almost $4million less than his remaining contract - roughly $11million? so only if he takes $7mill instead of $11...)

    It makes HIM look bad if nobody wants him enough to trade for him. See Marbury, Stephon.

    Face the facts, THAT is McGrady...

    NYK is freaking greedy.

    1) Wanting to keep Jordan Hill
    2) Wanting to put protection on draft picks
    3) Giving up expiring contracts so they can get 2 max free agents next season

    The Rockets aren't going to fall for your crap, Donny! :mad:

    It is appalling. It's like an auction. RT @AndrewLiv: Do they (Rockets) have to make everything public?

    F U Alan Hahn! We don't want to get screwed by your cronies!
